"Craig and his colleague did a wonderful job in dismantling a diseased tree, cutting the usable wood into logs and disposing of the rest: they even put the logs in the shed for us. They were punctual, efficient, courteous and cheerful and left everything very clean and tidy. The cost was exactly in accordance with the quotation and we cannot recommend them highly enough. We will definitely ask them for tree work in future."

Craig and his team arrived on time and provided a courteous and professional service to prune back a large mature walnut tree subject to the conditions of a TPO consent. The site was thoroughly tidied after both day's work and the aesthetic appeal of the tree maintained by skilled tree work. A thoroughly reliable outfit who I would have no hesitation recommending to others.

Tree work is dangerous and unregulated - anyone can call themselves a tree surgeon. Arboricultural Association ARB Approved Contractors are independently assessed for the quality of their tree work, their qualifications, their insurance and their health & safety, and are re-assessed regularly. Check they're listed before work starts near your home or power lines.
Check the ARB Approved Contractor directoryCheck they carry public-liability insurance (commonly £2–5m) and ask to SEE the certificate — tree work is high-risk and damage to your property, a neighbour's, or a person is expensive to put right.
Before any felling or heavy pruning, check whether the tree is protected — a preservation order, a conservation area, or active bird nesting — because YOU, the homeowner, can be fined for unauthorised work, not just the contractor.
Get the scope in writing (which trees, how much to take off, and who removes the waste and grinds the stump), and never pay in full before the work is finished.
